Of the year that is now coming to a close it is impossllde to speak in tho terms of summary and aPPraisal we aK>ly to ordinary and even extraordinary years.

Johnson Sends New Year's Greeting
WASHINGTON (WNS) Pre¬ sident Johnson, in a Rosh Hashana message to the Jew¬ ish community of America, said we are in the midst of a trybig and troubled time and that it is our stern duty to be guided by hope.
Concluding his message the President said "all of us are humbled, and heart¬ ened, by the sustaining fiiittr of Judaism in our midst."
THE MESSAGE read: "As my fellow-Americans of the Jewish fidth observe the coming of a New Year, I am happy to extend to each of you my warmest wishes for health and happiness.
"The High Holy Days ex¬ hort your people to sancti- fication through meditation, prayer, penitence, and love of God and neighbor. This mission lends Inspiration to all men of goodwill.
"We are in the midst of a trying and troubled time— a time that tests the bed¬ rock beliefs of our fathers and the founders of this land.-'' No citizens are better equip¬ ped thanyouto meet the chal¬ lenge before us.
"For those who have sought the way of justice and mercy, the road has al¬ ways been a thorny onie. For every friend of freedom, the history of man records- at least (me foe. But in every corner darkened fay despair, there has always been a hu¬ man conscience to bear the burden of its Inqiiity.
"Adversity and distress have been the constant com¬ panies of your people. But valor and endurance have been your constant fi-iends and our own pathfinders in need.
<|so, as yougatherinthese penitential days under the fatherhood of God, the bro¬ therhood of man is enriched fay a well-remembered past and a resurgent hope for that which is to come.
"And all of us are humb¬ led, and heartened, by, the sustaining f^th of Judaism in our midst."

What appears to be a simple act under the speU of faispiration, under mun¬ dane circumstances, be¬ comes burdensome, trying, insurmountable, and is con¬

Thus a New Year comes, reminds us of our broken promises, evokes new ones trasa us which are similar¬ ly destined to be ignored,

WHAT IS to be done?., Shall we discontinue maldng resolutions ontheNewYear? Shall we determine not to

that we must continue to re¬ peat promising and vowing again and again until we realize that every missioa we iiil^e upon ourselves, evei3^ 'goal and objective we set for ourselves, caimot , and will not be attained with- • out'Sacrifice. ' )
